You've covered the first one: it's hard. Compared to downloading a file and running it, modding an 360 isn't nearly as easy.
It is THAT easy. Just download some instructions and a flash tool, follow some simple steps and your 360 is ready for playing copies.

360 piracy is still mostly in the realm of a smaller number of competent, capable techies.
No. Really, no. Flashing your 360 is easy, EASY!!!! When you can read and follow simple instructions, you can modify your 360. Modding a PS3? Thats not so easy. But the PS3 being "unbreakable" for years also being the least successful console of its generation ... well, i guess copies arent that dangerous at all.

The second reason it's lower is that unlike the PC there's a death penalty if you get caught.
People have two 360s. One for playing copies, the other one for playing their legit games. And if you get banned, most people learn from their mistakes and use a second, cheaply bought 360 for their copied games.
